George Givot

  • ... that when George Givot played Mae West's character's black lover in the 1931 Broadway play The Constant Sinner, producers had him remove his wig after each performance to show the audience he was white?
  • ALT1:... that when George Givot played Mae West's character's lover in blackface in the 1931 Broadway play The Constant Sinner, producers had him remove his wig after each performance to show patrons he was white?
  • Reviewed: HMS Trial (1744)
  • Comment: The Afd has been withdrawn by the nominator.

5x expanded by Clarityfiend (talk). Self-nominated at 01:11, 28 September 2015 (UTC).

  • I think the hooks would be less cumbersome, and the meaning would be unaffected, if you removed "character's". Edwardx (talk) 10:29, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
  • It's also one way to make sure the hooks are not over the DYK maximum of 200, since they are currently 202 and 204 characters, respectively, and thus too long. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:59, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
  • I thought that "that" wasn't counted. Anyhoo, I'd rather just delete the play title instead.
